I'm going to express my feelings in a solid block of text. The Fourth of the Month is like a bad Hangover. I've never been drunk, nor have I ever consumed more than an itsy bit of alcohol, but this is how I imagine it to be. The Fourth of the Month, for those unaware, is the day after Half Price Day. Half Price Day, the Third of the Month, is an excellent but terrible day. Lots of people from around the globe, including every single resident of Delaware, is either restocking or autobuying. This is bad, because it means there is a lot of competition. At the same time, this is good - all this activity on the site sparks more restocks. So while running AU, I see that I've missed a lot more prickly potions, but I also can take a step back and realize that I've made double the profit I make on a normal day. I also let myself dream of what it would be like ABing on something other than a proxy, for neo was banned from me for just two days, the Third of the Month being one of them. This being said, the Third of the Month or Half Price Day is like I would imagine a night out drinking and partying would be like. Well, that would logically make the Fourth of the Month, or Full Price Day, the bad Hangover. There are fewer restocks because there is less activity because everyone is selling the wares they got yesterday, and this restock count is even less when juxtaposed upon Half Price Day's restock count. In this way, Full Price Day feels even worse - you get fewer restocks, fewer buys, and FULL PRICE! Yes, on top of the fewer restocks, and the fewer buys, you get twice the price of Half Price Day. So on Half Price Day, you get to AB for six hours because even legit restockers are working on neopets longer due to cheaper prices. In these six hours, you will see 182 restocks. The next day, Full Price Day, you can only realistically AB for six minutes (because not only metaphorically, Full Price Day IS a bad Hangover, munsterpoo and the rest are toasting their success). In these six minutes of ABing, you will only see half a restock, and you will lag when trying to buy the Sticky Snowflake Stamp. I'm done. Mods, if you see fit, feel free to edit the title of this post and move it to a new section (if you deem it is more of a guide than a spam board). I feel it is more of a guide, but I didn't want to post it there and suffer the humiliation of being wrong.
Not editing because this is Spam Corner, so I can double post, right? [21] :: richyrichest876 missed Prickly Potion at 47,474 NP from main shop with ID 83 :: [21] richyrichest876: *rips shirt off* Between Half Price Day and today, I've missed four potions from Brightvale Potionary, I've gotten none
Heh... I feel your pain. The only good thing I saw yesterday was stolen out from under me by leechers... I gotta learn to disconnect from AU chat... Nice story though.
